News release
FROM THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE PUBLICITY DIVISION 1001 CONNECTICUT AVENURE N. W. WASHINGTON 6. D.C. DISTRICT 7-9550
Le Alef(??)
FOR RELEASE TO A.M. NEWSPAPERS
SUNDAY, AUGUST 27, 1961 B... 3006
Charging that "private power barons are spending in excess of $20 million to grab control of a billion-dollar taxpayer investment," Democratic Chairman John M. Bailey called, in a signed article in the official party publication, The Democrat, for an investigation by Congress and the Federal Power Commission.
Bailey charged that the consumer was paying for the expensive lobby operation to block construction of federal transmission lines from the Colorado River Storage Project. He asserted the "power companies want to be the middle man and profiteer between Federal power generating facilities and non-profit distributors. Power companies are fighting for a license to bleed the consumers of $3-5 million annual extra rate payments."
In another signed article in The Democrat, Ewald Turner, President of the National Education Association, argues for support of President Kennedy's program of federal aid to education.
The Democrat is currently being mailed to 40,000 Democratic officials and party workers in every state. A copy is attached.
